Yeah, I disagree. It's basically the standard leftist argument that "no true leftist" goes far enough. Saying they are "half measures" doesn't mean they aren't progressive half-measures. I'm sure the

No, it's a progressive one. Their policies on drugs, policing, homelessness, enforcement, housing, zoning are all progressive. Why do you think it is "liberal" and what would a "real" progressive city look like, the

I'm not sure you understand what free speech is. Being able to claim someone's speech makes you "unsafe" is akin to "words are violence" that the pro free speech crowd objects to. Elon may face a greater risk o

Online dating is more convenient. Meeting a stranger in a bar or at a party, and striking up a conversation in the moment, is more satisfying.

Yeah, I addressed this in another comment[1]. "Most of the time" is doing a lot of work there, most is 75-80%. 20% is not negligible to me. But as your article points it, DCA is not about getting the absolute best return, it'

Absolutely. Sure, in a bull market you give up some upside but I doubt you're likely to really care. If I'm riding something all the way up and making profit, I'm happy. If I'm losing 20% or 40% of my money, I'm ext

Yes, you risk buying at inflated prices let's say. The common idiom is "time in the market beats timing the market", meaning yeah, just get your money in if you have it. Here's one analysis [1] that claims since 1950 in

DCA is always controversial here, someone always says lump sum is better, but I tend to think of the maxim of Ben Graham that "the stock market is a voting machine in the short term and a weighing machine in the long term". I expe

I believe your intuition is correct, and it just straightforwardly does help iron out short term volatility. What it de-risks is the likelihood the bottom arrives some time in the next year, at a point lower than today, and that you could h

I'm not sure what you mean by "make a name". As a dev I never needed to make a name, I just acquired skills that were useful for businesses (or my own business) through building applications. How you compete with people with

He explained his argument. I disagreed. My conclusion reading it was, crypto tokens are 98% scams. Uniswap is an exchange. It's a utility, using an open protocol. It's makeup reflects the makeup of the domain.

Race is very easy to focus on without making any structural changes in society. A black man was president. So long as it's the right black man, it doesn't change much.

This really isn't that bad. The evidence presented are one D2C alcohol startup shut down, and a couple companies pivoted to... charging for their services and not just pumping out memes. Could be worse.

Didn't seem that similar to me. Coinbase said we're not going to discuss politics at work unless it's related to crypto. Kraken said let's debate politics and gender and identity with the CEO in the company Slack.

Yes, just use. The fact that less common edge cases exist doesn't undermine the solution. The example in the article was example.com and api.example.com, the most common setup imo. > What if the API is shared between multiple domain
